Intel hints at price cuts

Intel seems to be planning significant price cuts in its
Core 2 Quad processor later this year. We already reported about here but
our friends at

HKEPC.com confirmed that the price of the 2.4 Ghz Core 2
Quad will be cut by 70 percent from $851 to $266 in the third quarter.

Intel has confirmed that it is planning a price cut, but
is refusing to say how much. TG Daily could only get Intel's Public Relations
Manager Dan Snyder to say that "price cuts are a normal part of this
industry."

Intel has been talking about using quad-core for gaming,
but to do that it will have to drop the price to compete.

It is expected that solid news of a price cut will be
made in September but the first price drop is expected in late April already.
